I didn't live on $10/hr, congrats if you can make that work...I guess.

It's interesting because I can see the benefit of our regionals hiring foreign, all as part of their "pilot cadet program", where they train and build hours, then maybe work for one of our regionals for a few years, then go back to their home country to fly A380s or whatever. Wouldn't benefit us (well, maybe it would mean highly disciplined pilots?) so much as that foreign carrier in the end. Given that our pilot groups are so weak and would never bind together to make a change in the industry "no matter what", we may lose the chance to some extent if this idea becomes commonplace.
